Figure 3

Forest plot of CD14 -260 ( -159 ) CT versus CC genotypes for studies with precisely defined phenotypes. The forest plot displays the meta-analysis results of studies included in the review that used atopic asthma versus non-atopic non-asthma case-control phenotypes, excluding heterogeneous studies identified by sequential analysis [11, 27, 42]. Meta-analysis was conducted using an inverse variance (IV), fixed effects model. For each study in the forest plot, the area of the black square is proportional to study weight and the horizontal bar represents the 95% confidence interval (CI). Atopic asthma and non-atopic non-asthma are abbreviated as AA and NANA, respectively.
